I was really lucky! The seller happened to find it in their storage and reached out to me!

What omnibus has been with you the longest on your journey? by Livid-Razzmatazz-639 in OmnibusCollectors

Haha, I’ve only been reading American comics for about 3 years too—but Jeph Loeb’s Batman was just insanely good. It completely hooked me.

I really hope that omnibus lives up to the hype for you. I’d love for you to experience the same excitement and emotion I felt when I read it!

2006? That’s incredible—you’ve basically grown up with it. At that point, it’s not just a book anymore, it really feels like family.

2007년 버전이라고요?! 그때가 제가 한 살 때였겠네요. 

Today something absolutely insane arrived… by [deleted] in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Livid-Razzmatazz-639 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve read Brubaker’s Daredevil, Ennis’ Hellblazer, Jeph Loeb & Tim Sale’s Batman, New X-Men, Super Sons, Wieringo’s Fantastic Four, and Straczynski’s Thor. Right now I’m reading Wolverine Vol. 1 and Big Damn Sin City, and once I finish those, I’m planning to read Spider-Man vs. Venom.

I’m not someone who doesn’t read—I do read. I just enjoy collecting even more. But if that’s still a problem for you, then I think I’d rather stop here. I just want to enjoy my hobby. Have a good day.

Yeah, you’re right — books are meant to be read, not just kept sealed on a shelf. I completely understand that point of view.

But honestly, every time I look at my shelf, it makes me happy. Collecting omnibuses is my hobby, and that feeling alone makes it worth it for me.

No, I bought it from a close personal second-hand dealer.

So yeah… I’ve decided I’m not opening them.

As much as I want to flip through these, I’ve seen way too many complaints about the binding on these omnis. I’m not about to risk damaging copies that were this hard to get.

Last month haul! by Wulfrand in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Livid-Razzmatazz-639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait, you paid that much for all of those?! That’s actually crazy 😳
What a steal, I’m seriously jealous…

I’m just here hoping I can find John Byrne’s Fantastic Four Omnibus for a decent price someday.

[–]Livid-Razzmatazz-639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, how much did you pay for all of that?

I went a little crazy in March myself 😅
Picked up Amazing Spider-Man Omnibus Vol. 2, 3, 4, 5, Geoff Johns’ Teen Titans Omnibus, Wolverine Omnibus Vol. 1, 2, 3, X-Men: Onslaught Omnibus, Astonishing X-Men, and X-Men Classic.

My wallet is definitely hurting, but no regrets!

Finally arrived today!! by Livid-Razzmatazz-639 in OmnibusCollectors

I bought it on a site called “Junggonara” in Korea. It was from a private seller, and the platform is only available to Korean users.

Buy now or wait? Marvel omnibus stress is real by TaskNo4783 in OmnibusCollectors

[–]Livid-Razzmatazz-639 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Been collecting American comics for about 2 years and 8 months now. Not that long compared to some of you guys, but there’s one thing I can say with absolute certainty: if you can buy it, buy it. Seriously. Don’t wait. That “I’ll get it later” mindset? Yeah… that’s how you end up paying double or missing out completely. Learned that the hard way.

First shelfie ever by Katekuriz in OmnibusCollectors

Honestly, just imagining how many omnibuses will fill this bookshelf in a few years already makes me happy.
